I just look confused (hardly a challenge for me) and say "Yeah, maybe I'll try that".

Egg them on. "Oh yeah... AK is never a raising hand because you don't even have a pair yet. Any two suited cards can make a flush, so it would be pretty stupid to not see a flop with them. Sometimes you should switch to low cards if too many flops have been hitting high because it's due for a correction."

Look around the table and see who agrees with him. Who's nodding their head.

People are at a poker table, they'll talk poker. Go to a football game and try not to talk about football...

You make them feel like you'll seriously take their points into consideration. Then you raise the next hand like that. Shrug and say you just can't help yourself. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I don't mind if they talk bad strategy at the table. You can learn alot about your opponents in these exchanges. Just don't give any info. Keep the conversation in their court. People love to talk about themselves.

This works great in games where you don't know anyone.

Depends:

A) "Really? Wow I didn't know that - I'll have to try that".

B) "Eh, I know - but you're a pro, I'm just here to gamble and have fun".

C) "Ohhh...Yeaaa! That makes sense! I learn so much watching players like YOU!".

D) Stack them as often as possible.

"Are you KIDDING me? I LOOOOOVE to raise"

or

"I know, but I like raising a lot, I need to play in big pots for it to seem worth it."

or

"I usually don't play like this, but I am trying something different today."

or

"FKU, you cheap bastard, the 1/2 is over there!"
